Sex With No Strings

How To Know If She's Interested In Casual Sex Or Something More

between fling and ring

The question really is: can women (or men for that matter) have sex without feeling a sense of love? My immediate answer to this question, is "yes — absolutely." However, as I dive deeper into this question I am fraught with personal experiences and stories of close friends.

These stories tell me that even if a woman wishes not to have a committed relationship with the man she is sleeping with, there is a part of her that will become attached, at least on a physical level.

Research tells us that when two people touch, there is a chemical bond that is formed between them. To further this, when a couple engages in sexual relations, this bond strengthens and can become more difficult to break.

With women, there is often a discrepancy between what the mind and body are saying because women enjoy sex just as much as men, but are sometimes more aware of this attachment they can develop. "Women give sex to get love. Men give love to get sex." However trite this phrase sounds, its accuracy reflects the gender difference in thought process between men and women.

times are changing

Having said that, there has never been a time where women have been so free to pursue education, careers and romantic or sexual interests outside the conventional scripts written. Whether she is in a stage of notching, transition or traditionalism, women are faced with more choices than ever before.

With all these new options, the majority of women may move through these different classifications at one point or another. Be clear about your intentions and expectations of the relationship. Ask questions and check in with each other every so often.
